A dog named Oogy was about ten weeks old and weighed 20 pounds, he was tied to a stake and used as bait for a Pit Bull. The left side of his face, including most of his ear, was torn off. He was bitten so hard a piece of his lower jaw was crushed. Afterward, he was thrown into a cage and left to bleed to death. He was found by police when they raided the facility and taken to an emergency service operating out of the Ardmore Animal Hospital, in a suburb of Philadelphia.…
In the United States, there are approximately 74-96 million owned cats in comparison to the 70-80 million owned dogs. Meaning that you are more likely to own a cat. I never understood this as a dog lover, because cats seem to just be a “lazy person’s dog.” Cats seem to lack all the good qualities of a dog such as: loyalty, obedience, playfulness, and so forth. Those that I know that own cats just seem to like them because they are easier to take care of, and that they require less attention than a dog.…
We are going to train cats to do as commanded. We are going to train them to do tricks and simple commands such as, beg, come on command, shake, toilet training, walk on a leash, and to not claw the furniture or people. We will also train them to behave well and be vigilant to what we say. Make sure you keep your cat well active and feed them healthy food so your cat doesn’t get lethargic. One thing to remember is to never discipline your cat.…
No homestead is really complete without a cow or three. Cows serve a few different important purposes on the homestead. Not only do they provide milk, which can then be used to make cheese, yogurt and a number of other dairy items, but cows provide much-needed meat products for the homestead family as well. Of course, there are a large number of different cow breeds, so how is the new homesteader to know which is the best dairy cow breeds? My favorite types of cows for dairy products are as follows: Holsteins Holsteins are one of the most common breeds of cow found in dairy farms, for one important reason: they tend to produce more milk than any of the other breeds.…
In addition to being energetic, dogs need exercise, like outdoor walks. Cats, however, are much more calm (depending on the cat) and less needy, as they are often asleep or lying around, as cats can sleep for nearly 16 hours a day, possibly even more. Cats don’t require exercise,…
The cat family can most certainly trace their genealogy to ancient Cyprus and Egypt where cats were held to such a high regard that laws were actually created to protect these wonderful animals. If you are wondering why your cat seems to be a bit snobby at times, the ancient times in Egypt and Cyprus may be to blamed, who knows if these cats can understand and comprehend their true history but one may have to wonder based upon how the modern day cat…
Now the thing is you won’t even have to touch the cat when she’s in the litter box trying to learn. I will be more than happy to teach her how to do it, and I will also clean up after her. When you get a cat…
Dolls and Barbies were not my kind of toy as a child. However hand me some stuffed animals and a doctor's kit, and I'd happily play veterinarian. I'd lose myself for hours, carefully wrapping paws and tails in toilet paper casts and bandages. Knowing this, is it any wonder that suffering from a lack of actual flesh and blood furballs (due to our landlord's rule of no pets) I have 'adopted' several plushies?…

Corgis are so cute and fluffy with their heart shaped butts and their short little legs. I just wish I could have one here on campus. It’s disappointing that we cannot have pets live in the apartments. Not saying this will happen but what if Schreiner allowed someone living in the apartments to have a pet. There are a lot of arguments against having a pet, but there are real benefits to having a dog or cat around.…
